Iowa is believed to be the first state in the U.S. to elect a woman to public office. Julia C. Addington was elected Superintendent of Schools in Mitchell County in 1869, although women were not allowed to vote at the time. https://t.co/VEnl2Spg0c #TriviaTuesday #DYK #ThisIsIowa https://t.co/JhLWohAi29 — PolitiTweet.org
